I'm not up to date with any phone apps because my phone--being nearly 4 years old--really shows its age. I'm also a very private person, so I don't really use any social media except to follow other people.

I have almost no time for television. Anime squeaks by because when a typical series hovers around 26 episodes and 25 minutes per episode (less if you skip opening/ending)--plus many anime series are tightly scripted which means almost every episode feels like the story is advancing. Star Trek TNG, which is one of my favorite series, took me nearly three years to finish. I would watch movies, but I feel like rarely any of the ones I want to watch show up on netflix. Maybe Hulu has more movies I should check out? who knows. I like to watch documentaries, like PBS Nova, since they are stand-alone episodes and usually accessible for free via the producer's website.

My music interests are weird. I listen to soundtracks of video games almost exclusively, although a few other soundtracks make it in. This reflects exposure: I hear soundtracks through games and/or series I watch, which in turn causes me to listen to them. I also really dislike love songs or lyrics that are remotely related to love, since said love is almost always straight so it's hard for me to relate.

Speaking of which, I tend to play video games I find cute and/or charming. There's a lot I can say here, but suffice to say, I'd rather play something like Pokemon or Animal Crossing as opposed to Call of Duty or Witcher. Game mechanics are important, but they alone are usually insufficient to sell me on a game (however, poor game mechanics is enough to make me avoid a game. It's weird).

I've read textbooks for fun. other textbooks are non-fiction. I feel like if I'm not learning something while reading, it isn't worth my time. The reason why is I have to pay per book so I want to make sure my money goes into something worthwhile investing. Video games don't really have a "documentary' or "non-fiction" analog, so there really isn't anywhere else for me to invest.

So yes, I'm basically completely out of touch with popular culture. Oh well, such as my life.

TV shows in general.... And the typical social phone applications .....

I also don't understand the hype for cream puffs.... Like, why. Why do people love it so much?

May I throw in health fads? There is no such thing as "junk food" - I bet I can lose weight by eating ice cream...... If that's literally the only thing I eat.... Once a day.... No guarantee for my life span though.
